Carolyn hadn’t expected the illustration would require that level of complexity, but as she created the stitches, she realized each one needed a slight variation in color to capture the look of real yarn. Dozens of slight color variations soon became hundreds of slight color variations.

“I love the way you’ve completed the concept circle by making the sign-off look like the manufacturer’s tags!”
